Zhao Lei

Zhao Lei was an officer of Shu. He followed Guan Yu in an attack on Fan Castle, and was recognized as a faithful and loyal follower and some felt that he should be given control of Jing in place of Pan Jun. However, Guan Yu kept Zhao Lei at his side. After Jing fell to Wu, he retreated with Guan Yu to Mai Castle. He later tried to escape to the west, but was surrounded by Wu troops and died in battle.
